Yesterday, 5 groups in 2 man-teams navigated their way across London’s sights of attraction. But it wasn’t simply using Ovi Maps and locating point X. We were only ever given coordinates, which meant one wrong digit placement could lead us anywhere but where we had to go to. Once getting to the correct destination there […]

Nokia uploaded an advert on YouTube about the Ovi Store: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rh9704QIgF4] In the video, Nokia claim that you can “GET THOUSANDS OF APPS FOR YOUR N97 AT THE OVI STORE” Now, “THOUSANDS” implies at multiple thousands, at least 2000, right?
